The list of men's 100-meter finals has been released. There are three Chinese athletes, three Jamaican athletes, and two American athletes. It is a true tripartite confrontation between China, the United States, and Jamaica. This is a new history of the world's men's 100-meter sport.

After the semi-finals, Wei En and Zhang Peimeng, who was so excited that he cried, met up. After some consolation, the two accepted an interview with CCTV in the media area. Later, Wei En selectively accepted a few simple interviews with nbhk TV station.

, only then officially ended his semi-final journey.

"Beautiful! Wei En, Pei Meng, well done! Our Chinese track and field team actually occupied three places in the 100-meter finals!"

Back in the rest area, Feng Shuyong, Yu Weili and other track and field team leaders came to congratulate them with joy and brought congratulatory messages from the State Sports General Administration.

After praising Su Bingtian and Zhang Peimeng, Feng Shuyong pulled Wei En aside alone, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Let's have a good competition in the finals, and fight for the country and the nation! The leader of the Sports Bureau said that if we win

If you win this championship, the person who will send you a congratulatory message will not be the General Administration of Sports, but..."

Wei En was shocked by the last three words in Feng Shuyong's words. What were they? That was the country's highest administrative agency! If he really got the congratulatory message from there, then the person who sent it...

However, despite being surprised, Wei En's mentality is still very normal.

He embarked on the path of track and field and worked countless hardships to get the opportunity to compete with legendary players such as Usain Bolt, not just to get awards and congratulations from someone or some organization.

From the beginning to the end, he has remained true to his original intention, working endlessly and sweating just to practice the great Olympic spirit: faster, higher, stronger!

Therefore, Feng Shuyong's words were quickly selectively "blocked" by Wei En. He knew very well: You must not let this kind of thing circulate in your mind, otherwise it will only increase the psychological burden for no reason.

After talking to Feng Shuyong, Wei En went through Randy's arrangement to restore his energy, relax his muscles with a massage, and relax for a while to regain his energy.

Half an hour later, with the help of the team members, they "moved" to the indoor warm-up area of ​​Luzhniki Stadium and began pre-match warm-up and muscle activation.

This arrangement made IAAF staff a little confused. After all, the space of the indoor warm-up field is small. Although the effect is not bad, athletes generally prefer to warm up in the spacious outdoor field.

However, the IAAF readily agreed to the request of the Chinese track and field team. After all, it was their choice to warm up indoors and outdoors, not to mention that among the three athletes who had to warm up, there was also the IAAF.

As for Wei En, who has been highly praised for the past two years.

At 19:50 that night in Moscow, just after the women's 100-meter final ended, it began to rain heavily in Moscow, which was still a little hot. At this time, there were still 30 minutes left before the originally scheduled start time of the men's 100-meter final.

Five 100-meter athletes from Jamaica and the United States who were in the final warm-up session were suddenly interrupted by the rain, and then quickly poured into the indoor warm-up area.

Although there was a warning in the weather forecast, the heavy rain did come suddenly. More than half of the competitors were disrupted from their warm-up rhythm. In addition, the heavy rain itself caused certain problems to the competition field, so the IAAF had to make a decision.

The decision to delay the start of the game.

Naturally, it is impossible to delay the start of the race until tomorrow. The answer to this much-anticipated 100-meter speed showdown must be announced tonight, otherwise the prestige of the IAAF will definitely suffer a blow due to the excitement of the crowd.

"Usain, you have always had a big heart."

Time goes back to shortly after the semi-finals. When Usain Bolt returned to the dugout, Glenn Mills dismissed the personnel including Blake and Bailey Cole, and then stood beside him.

sit down.

Feeling his lover's dull reaction since the semi-finals, Glenn Mills felt that he felt the same way at the moment and wanted to enlighten him, but he knew Bol's character well and knew not to explain it too clearly, so he sighed like this.

"Coach, I know what you mean. I didn't show the confidence I should have." Usain Bolt lowered his head and beat his thigh. Obviously, he had not been able to recover from the defeat in the semifinals for a while.

Come out.

"Usain, have you ever thought about your world record being broken by someone else?" Glenn Mills still didn't get to the point. Instead, he asked a question that even Bolt found strange.

"Your two world records have only been maintained for four years until this year's World Championships. It has only been more than five years since you set the 100-meter world record for the first time. Four or five years.

Li, have you ever thought that your world record will be broken by someone else?"

Glenn Mills has been a track and field coach for decades, and has had Bolt under his tutelage for eight years, so he has a clear understanding of his character.

Changing the topic is a good way to relieve inner pressure. Asking questions like this can make Bolt start thinking and temporarily forget the previous unhappiness.

"Of course, of course I have thought about this kind of thing." Usain Bolt raised his head and looked directly into Glenn Mills' cloudy eyes, and said solemnly:

"I don't want my world record to be broken, at least not while I'm still alive. Really, coach, I hope that when I have children in the future, I can still proudly say to him: [Look, even though it's passed

After all these years, no one still runs faster than dad, and dad is still the greatest sprinter in the world."

"I know that this idea is a bit selfish, because it also means that the development of world sprinting has come to a standstill with me, and mankind's pursuit of speed limits has ended because of me, but this is what I think in my heart! Just like back then

Asafa, who holds a world record, was extremely nervous when faced with the impact of Justin Gatlin and Tyson Gayon, so he performed abnormally in the World Series."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I do have a big heart. When I was young, I relied on this big heart to defeat powerful enemies one after another on the stage of the World Series, creating and

It broke the world record. But now, in order to defend my world record and my dominance in the 100 meters and 200 meters, I have begun to be afraid."

"I started to be afraid that I would make a mistake, so when the Chinese Su's swoosh rushed out, my body suddenly became tense. For a moment, I even forgot how to take steps normally. The result was A mistake that almost ruined the game..."

A long string of words blurted out, and in the end Bolt sighed and held his forehead, feeling physically and mentally haggard.

Glenn Mills hugged him like a father, stretched out his hand and patted his back gently, comforting: "I know that you are under too much pressure, that's why you were beaten by a player who is obviously not as strong as you. It's affected. But Usain, if you want to defend your honor, you have to learn to relax, calm down, and take control of the situation."

"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. You are carrying so much pressure that you have forgotten the joy that running brought you in the first place. A body that is physically and mentally tense cannot perform at its due level."

"Recall the scene back then. You raced against senior students for a lunch box... In order to be able to buy a pair of red dancing shoes for your mother and a high-end pipe for your father, you finally became a professional athlete. , the joy of winning back the prize money for the first time on the field... For the people of Jamaica who support you, you fought hard on the stage of the World Youth Championship, and then the national flag was added to it, and tens of thousands of people cheered for you. .....”

"Think about you saying to me after the World Championships in Osaka: [Coach, I don’t want to lose again], and then you started the legendary road that belongs to Usain Bolt, in New York after the rain, on the red The Bird's Nest, in the blue Berlin, in the windswept London..."

After a while of comfort, Glenn Mills felt that Bolt's condition gradually calmed down, so he stroked his shoulder and looked directly at him: "You are the greatest sprinter and the absolute king on the field! The game is not decided by 30 or 40 meters, can you understand what I mean?"

"Yes, coach, I understand."

"Now, tell me what you think."

"Huh -" Usain Bolt took a deep breath, "I am eager to fight, eager to defeat Wayne, and defeat all those who covet my throne! I don't care what the final result of the game is, nor do I care tonight , will anyone be able to break my world record in the future? Now I just want to win, I will try my best on the field and shout to the world - look! Usain Bolt is still the fastest runner in the world. Fast man!"

"I am still the king standing at the top! I am a legend!"

------------------

"Noah, come here quickly! Don't get lost!"

At 20:40 that night in Moscow, a pair of black mother and son who seemed to be "late to arrive" squeezed into the Luzhniki Stadium. The black mother walking in front was a bit bloated, but her child looked... There are obviously signs of years of exercise.

"Thank God, I didn't expect that we could actually get tickets before the final, so that you can watch this 100-meter flying contest!"

Keisha Kane finally breathed a sigh of relief after finding her seat, and then took out a towel from her backpack to wipe the rain off her son Noah Liles. It suddenly started raining heavily in Mexico 20 minutes ago, but this time

It still can't extinguish people's expectations for this speed showdown.

"I'm so lucky. I didn't expect that I would actually be able to come here. This is the World Championships!" Noah Liles let his mother wipe the rain off his body while his eyes were fixed on the field.

Heavy rain poured down from the sky in Moscow, and Luzhniki was brightly lit at night, as bright as day.

Under the pouring rain, only a few staff members wearing raincoats were left standing in the Luzhniki Stadium. The reporters in the media area were looking at the entrance of the athletes' tunnel, obviously looking forward to the appearance of the 100-meter finalists.

The scene of the men's 100-meter semi-final match two hours ago was being played on the big screen at the scene. Justin Gatlin, Usain Bolt, Wei En... Noah came one by one.

Ers's extremely familiar figures came into view one after another.

After Keisha Kane wiped off the rainwater from Noah Liles, she slumped on the seat and complained: "Noah, you know that in order to meet your request, mother spent this short time

How much money did you spend in the past few days? Although it is the outermost seat, you have to know that the tickets for tonight have been sold to a sky-high price!"

"But..." Noah Liles scratched his head and complained: "Mom, after that couple saw that I was a sprinter, they transferred the tickets to us at the original price...

"

"Hahahahahaha——" After hearing this black boy's words, the surrounding audience laughed out loud.

"Damn it, you have grown up, you actually dare to cancel your mother!" Saying this, Keisha Kane was not actually angry, but pointed at the guard who was strolling on the big screen and won the first place in the group.

En said: "I hope you can remember your mother's efforts. One day in the future, you will become a world-renowned sprint superstar like him."

Noah Liles didn't seem too confident, and just said frustrated: "I want to, but mom, I didn't even make it to the finals in Donetsk."

"Oh, kid, are you a sprinter too?" After hearing Noah Liles' words, a white spectator holding an American flag in his hand asked.

"Yes, and Noah will definitely become a world star in the future!" Keisha Kane said proudly, "His father is Kevin Liles, who won a 4x400m gold medal for the United States at the 1995 World Championships in Gothenburg.

Gold medal, and my Noah will definitely be a world champion in the future!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Keisha Kane’s bold words frightened the surrounding audience for a while, and many viewers cast their eyes on Noah Liles, who looked very young.

He looked at her admiringly, but Noah Liles felt a little guilty.

His family knows their own affairs. Strictly speaking, his father Kevin Liles did help the American track and field team win a gold medal in the men's 4x400m relay at the 1995 World Championships in Gothenburg, but it was not the final, but the preliminaries.

However, he has played in the preliminaries and also holds the title of World Championships champion. At least on the IAAF official website, his father has this honor.

As for what his mother said about becoming a world champion or even a sprint superstar in the future, Noah Liles has certainly fantasized about it, but he didn't even make it to the 200m final at this year's World Junior Championships in Donetsk, so he's not that ambitious.

, the temporary goal I have set for myself is to qualify for the Youth Olympic Games in Jinling, China next year.

"Noah, I hope you can cheer up. The defeat in the World Junior Championships is only temporary. You will definitely become a world champion in the future! Do you remember what Wei En said in the video I showed you?"

Keisha Kane reached out and touched her son's head. Noah Lyles looked up at his mother, nodded and said, "Remember. [I hope that all athletes who are working hard for their track and field dreams and sports dreams,

Students, remember, from the moment you embark on your career path, your goal is only to win the championship!】"

A white man next to him praised: "Every time I hear this sentence, I always admire this Chinese from the bottom of my heart. It is precisely because he has such a belief in his heart and trains hard and sweats day after day, year after year.

, he can step by step get to where he is today and become the second person in the history of 100 meters."

"Kid, remember. In sports, when you step onto the world stage, your nationality and your skin color are irrelevant. Just like Wayne, who is about to appear, no one with a brain will care about him.

Coming from China, I doubt him because of his skin color, but I sincerely hope that he can represent all mankind and hit new physical limits. This is a superstar!"

At this moment, bursts of enthusiastic cheers suddenly sounded from all around, blowing away the sudden chill caused by the heavy rain.

Noah Liles looked up and saw that the replay on the big screen had finally ended. On the screen at this time, the eight athletes in the men's 100-meter final were lining up and walking out of the waiting room one by one, heading towards the arena.

Come.

"Superstar... one day, I will also become a superstar and accept the attention of everyone!" Noah Liles vowed silently in his heart.
Chapter completed!
